*Alicias POV*
"It's not to far from here Ominis Sebastian I beg of you to make yourselves scarce, the ministry will not take kindly if they find out I allowed two students to tag along.
Meet us at the entrance, the ministry is only sending me and Alicia inside."
Sebastian and Ominis didn't hestitate and quickly left our side as Xavior led me to another hidden tent. Auror Longbottom and a few other wizards and witches were inside waiting over a table covered in a blue print.
"Welcome Xavior and Miss Evermore Longbottom said kindly. Lets get down to business we have no time to waste.
We managed to get a hold of this estates blueprints we suspect he is keeping gaurd over the main doors and the gardens, we have found away around that there is a tunnel that connects the house to the gardenshed we think that will be the best entrance for you two.
We have only seen a handful of his members but there could be more on the inside. Our informant has said they keep the hostage locked away in the back bedroom. Our mission today is to rescue her foremost and to avoid Marx at any cost, we still don't have enough proof that he is the head of The Pure.
Good luck to both of you in this endeaver the opening you need is right now so you best be going." And with that he dismissed us.
After we were out of hearing, I looked at Xavior, "you can't go against the ministries rules, if they find out you killed him they will send you to azkaban."
"I am just giving him a warning tonight that he needs to end whatever he is caught up in, he would be to suspecting right now. He whistled and Ominis and Sebastian appeared next to us. We need to make a fast plan, we have gained an entrance but now we need a distraction so you two can get to the back bedroom, thats where they are keeping Anne."
"It's obvious Xavior you and I will cause the distraction we will gain all attention and keep it on our side while Ominis and Sebastian get Anne and get out of here."
We all nodded in agreement and made it to the gardens shed quickly and quietly stepping in.
It was dark and musty the latch to the tunnels door was barely visable from the dark and the layers of dirt on top of it.
Xavior and I went first lighting up our wands. The air was stale and stifling at the same time. The pungent smell of wet soil encased us.
The tunnel it's self had many beams and supports that looked ready to decay.
We remained silent as we went on our own adrenaline causing our hearts to race as we neared a door, knowing danger was on the other side.
"Stay here until you hear the sound of running and leave when you no longer use them. Please use your best judgement if you get caught I can't promise I can save any of you. My brothers mind has been twisted into a mind that belonged to someone who was half mad."
Seb and Ominis nodded as we slowly opened the door. We entered into a dark cold basement, furniture and trunks were strewn across the room. I couldn't lie I was curious and wanted to explore, you could tell some of the statues and random artificats were decades old.
So much history discarded never to see the light again.
I wonder if that is how Marx felt. As much as I didn't want to feel sympathy for the life he had been delt I did.
He was abused as a child, made to feel unloved and unwanted by everyone but Xavior. He didn't know what happiness was outside of the time he spent with Xavior.
Than he finally was freed from hus prison his responsibilities of protecting his brother. He found pease and happiness and love only to have it ripped brutally away from him.
And than was cursed to follow in the steps of the man he abhored the most.
His father failed him, not even being strong enough to keep his son from making an unbreakable vow. I never imagined Headmaster Black was such a coward that he couldn't even protect his children.
Who knows what I would have turned into if I had shared his expriences.
As we wandered out of the basement I became alert, we needed to get caught in order to distract any of the witches and wizards that monitered the halls in order for Seb and Ominis to rescue Anne. We slowly made our way into the old dusty halls with only the lights from the rusted candelbras that were fixed into the walls. Xavior glanced over to me from time to time, as our footsteps quietly echoed against the marbled floor.
He quickly drew me into his arms in a protective mannor and shoved me to the wall. "There is someone coming, are you ready to inact our plan?" I nodded in agreement.*Ominis POV*
The halls were oddly quiet it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. "Is it odd that we haven't came across a single soul? I whispered to Seb you would think they would have Anne heavily gaurded."
Seb glanced over and nodded in agreement, "something does seem rather off if Anne has the chance to escape she would have taken it."
We continued down the dimly lit corridor until we came to the last door.
Seb wasted no time and clutched onto the doorknob and pushed the door open.
Anne was sitting in a chair next to the window her light brown hair tumbled down the back of the chair.
"I was begining to wonder if you would come back. She qucikly turned around the excitment faded from her face when her eyes met mine.
Ominis, Seb what are you doing here?"
Sebs anger quickly boiled over, "what do you think we are doing Anne? Just stopping in for some tea? We are here to rescue you from this place and from The Pure. So get a cloak on and lets get going before they notice you have left." He quickly tossed the cloak that was drapped on a hanging rack.
Annoyance also bit at me as she hadn't even made a move to come greet me, you would think she would be enthrailed that her suiter had come to her rescue.
Anne looked conflicted as she slowly placed the cloak on, "what is the issue Anne? Did you not want to be saved from a man who is killing innocent people? If you want to stay here be my guest. But if you do I will see you in the same light as my parents and you can consider our courtship over if you remain here.
I looked over at Seb I am leaving I am not willing to risk my life for a girl who would rather remain here with an evil wizard than come back with us."
Anne quickened her pace, "I'm sorry Ominis my hesitation is only stemmed from worry, he is a powerful man and I am afraid of what he will do if he finds out his only bargaining chip is gone."
I could tell that there was more but I accepted her explination and quickly took her hand leading her out of the room.
We ran through the hallways and back into the basement quickly entering the tunnels.
As soon as we had made distance I apparated us to Hogwarts.
We made it back to the Slytherin common room where Seb excused himself.
Anne quickly tried to excuse herself but I quickly grabbed her and sat her down.
"We need to talk, something isn't quite right about this it was too easy you were left ungaurded. Tell me you haven't joined his organization? What could you have done to gain his trust in that way?"
Anne avoided my eye contact and stared out the window at the dark and dreery lake.
"I became bewitched by him Ominis, it was if I was drawn to him like a bee is to honey.
He fully captivated me I did not want to leave you are correct in that. Not because I share his ideals but because there was something about him that attracted me."
"How could you Anne? I chose the life and love we wanted to rebuild, I discarded Alicia and the love we had to be with you!
And this is how you repay me? This is how you show that you love me?
A good looking man who is a KILLER Anne or did you forget that part while you were being swept off your feet? I sacrificed my heart for you and this is what I get from you? She flinched at every word that spewed from my mouth.
How could you? Why did you even bother coming back? Why did you bother pursuing me if your feelings were not as deep and unyeilding as you said they were. To be infatuated with a man who is killing others for no good reason."
Tears started falling from her eyes.
"Omi please forgive me, I never meant to hurt you. I love you with my whole heart, I had no intentions of betraying you in such a way. I was weak and you are right I was shallow and unthoughtful.
I beg of you to forgive me for this one mistake. I just couldn't help how attractive he was and I was such a fool and shallow minded to even begin to think of being with someone else just based on face value."
"Get to bed Anne I can't continue this conversation as I am afraid I will say cruel things I don't mean, we can talk more tomorrow."
With that I left the dorm and made my way to the boathouse.
I had never been so angry in my life, not even when my parents had forced me to crucio an old lady who happened to be trespassing on our estate without knowing.
I had given up on Alicia for Anne and all I could think was that I had chose wrong that I should have stayed with Alicia.
The anger and pain I was feeling was overwhelming I almost prayed the giant squid would come and take me down into the deepest depths of the lake.
I had discarded the woman I loved for a girl who fell for a monster. How was I supposed to get over that.
